I agree that the police need more training to deal with these situations, but part of the reason the police have increasingly been dealing with mental health crises is because of the cuts and lack of funding for social care and the mental health sector. The police were trained to deal with criminals and investigate crimes and mental health can't be treated with that system. So we need to rebuilding social and community care and holding the government to account for it.
Thank you.
Amazing man
Fair play bro
